Three years ago, ERG Gallery opened its doors with a vision: to create a space where art, creativity, and community could thrive in harmony. Today, ERG is more than a galleryโitโs a beacon of resilience, love, and connection, all made possible by the people who have supported it every step of the way.
At the heart of ERG is Eric Wilson, a man whose passion and creativity have built not just a gallery but a legacy. Even when life threw him a curveballโan untimely accident that required weeks of physical therapy and recoveryโEric remained steadfast, continuing to uplift his business, his family, and his community.
But Eric hasnโt done it alone. His journey has been deeply rooted in the love and support of his wife, Keisha Wilson, the owner of Kays Kraves, whose entrepreneurial spirit mirrors his own. Together, theyโve poured their energy into not just their businesses but the community they cherish. His mother, sisters, and close family friends have been constant pillars of encouragement, reminding Eric of the strength that comes from a village that believes in you.
And then thereโs his daughter, Scherica Wilson, whose achievements shine brightly. As the youngest firefighter and paramedic in St. Louis, Scherica recently received the Winning in Blaque Award, celebrating her strength in overcoming obstacles and her dedication to service. She embodies the same resilience and drive that define ERG and the Wilson family.
Together, theyโve built more than a galleryโtheyโve created a movement. Hereโs how ERG has impacted St. Louis and beyond:
